    Am I the only one that thinks pressuring Floyd all the time is NOT the way to beat him?

    Check out fight 2, this fight wasnt even debateable like the 1st one & Castillo tried the exact same thing.

    Fraud won the second fight but he didnt look good doing it,you make it seem like it was some kind of masterpiece when it was far from it.

    Watch the fight again and you can see in either the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th round Mayweather says to his corner that his shoulder is hurtin' and the announcers pick up on it and say something about it. It was obviously truth way before the fight was over. He said it to his corner way early in the fight.

    Yeah? It was probably true.
    You know what else is true?
    He lost that fight.

    Here's a simple question.

    Do *you* believe floyd mayweather jr. won his first fight with Jose Luis Castillo.
    This will tell me everything I need to know about your knowledge of the sport.

    What *you* believe, or *I* believe is just conjecture. The fact is he won with one arm in the 1st fight, and then proved that to be fact by winning without a doubt in the 2nd fight when he was in better shape aka not an arm hurting early on. It's a matter of opinion that can go either way when pertaining to the 1st fight. I don't give a **** what you think about my knowledge of the sport.
